Our general structural steels are used in a wide variety of applications in steel structures, bridges, buildings, vehicles and wind towers.
Our weather-resistant structural steels are often used in bridges and provide advantages in maintenance costs.

We are not talking about autumn or the rain, but we are thinking about our weather-resistant TM steel grades.
The new edition of EN 10025-5 in 2019 finally included thermomechanically-rolled (TMCP) weathering steels in the European standard.
The TMCP steel grades S355J2W+M, S420J2W+M and S460J2W+M stand out due to their low carbon content and significantly higher toughness, even at low temperatures. This guarantees best workability and weldability.
To highlight the advantages of our weather-resistant TM steel grades please find below a comparison of normative requirements and typical voestalpine values of CEV:
S355J2W / S420J2W / S460J2W | max. CEV acc. Norm EN 10025-5 | 0,52% |
S355J2W+M / S420J2W+M / S460J2W+M | typical voestalpine values at wt=50mm | 0,41% |
